Our comprehensive and highly professional childcare programme is provided by our experienced teams of caring, enthusiastic and creative staff. They
genuinely enjoy entertaining and caring for children and it is their enthusiasm
that ensures all our guests have a wonderful holiday. All staff are CRB checked, fully trained and include those first aid qualified. Childcare is arranged to meet the needs of particular age groups but clubs run on the same days so that parents can spend some time together as well as with the whole family. This makes it possible for just the older children to go walking or swimming with parents whilst very young children are cared for. We also provide a breakfast club by arrangement to enable early morning skiing on the glacier for one day.
We tailor each week's childcare programme to the ages of children and with flexibility, as far as possible, to meet the needs and preferences of parents and enthusiasm of children for various activities.
